    Monster Barra from the Goldie

    Cuda that is.
    Went for a quick flick yesterday down the gold coast land based to see if i could get a few flatties, tried a few different spots, with not much to talk about and on the last cast for the day i managed to hook this beast on a squidgee wriggler 6lb braid and 10lb leader. fight took a good 20 minutes and it was released went about 125cm.Click image for larger version.

    Not the barra I was imagining but still a very impressive catch on light gear.

    The way it was fighting i first thought it was a big GT, blistering runs and changing direction. but it was fun anyway.

    wow on light gear too!
    Must have been one of those hookups where the leader cleared the Cudas mouth.

    Nice effort.
